Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 104: Divine Forbidden [Additional Update for Chinese Chess Players to Win the Top Four of the Beihai Cup]

One advantage of playing chess with Japanese players compared to Silla players is that, unless they are defeated, Japanese players will admit defeat more readily and will not force themselves to fight you until the last moment.

It is also related to the so-called Go aesthetics that was popular in Japan in the last century. Their philosophy is that when you realize that the situation is almost unfavorable, you should admit defeat. You cannot mess around just to win and thus tarnish the Go record.

Silla chess players are different. Even if they know that it is absolutely impossible to win, they will still insist on not admitting defeat and play with you until the last moment.

I can only say that he perfectly inherited his wild dad captain's motto: "I can fight you all day long!" Even with a gap of just a few points, he can still forcefully finish all the official games with his opponent, sometimes even refusing to close the game properly, instead forcing tricks and igniting things everywhere in the hope that his opponent will make a mistake.

Chinese chess players are generally somewhere in between. When they are at a disadvantage, they will try their best, but if they really can't win, they will admit defeat.

Uno Chisuke's style is like that of a traditional Japanese chess player, and the same is true when it comes to admitting defeat. When he sees that the game is hopeless, he chooses to give up decisively after more than a hundred moves.

After resigning and admitting defeat, Uno Chisuke directly refused Yi Zheng's request to review the game and chose to get up and leave. He really had no interest in reviewing the game.

Although reviewing the game is a classic post-match process where both players discuss and summarize their gains and losses, if one party, especially the loser, is unwilling to do so, no one will force it.

In Uno Chisuke's opinion, the failure of this game was mainly due to an extremely amateurish spoon at the beginning of the game, which led to the complete collapse.

There's no point in replaying the whole thing. He was being hunted down by younger enemies the entire time, even to the point of having his beard and robes cut off. Do I really need to replay the scene all over again? Even Cao Cao didn't have that habit.

When the other teammates of Namba Heavy Industries watched Uno Tomosuke leave, they thought he had easily won the team's first victory, and many of them even felt a lot more relieved.

The players of the Capital Bank team felt even more depressed. Although they knew that Yi Zheng would lose, they didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Only Gu Zhengyu, who went over there and took a look, knew that it was most likely Uno Tomosuke who voted.

Until the end of the game, Metrobank team lost both the first and third tables. When the other two teammates thought they had lost the first game, they found out that the referee announced the result of the game as Metrobank team winning 2-2 with the main player.

"Wait a minute, it's 2-2, so Yi Zheng won?"

As a teammate, Gao Jingfeng was stunned when he heard the referee announce the result of the game. He thought that he and Qian Honglang had lost, and there was a high probability that they would fail in this game.

After all, Yi Zheng was using inferior horses to counter the other party's superior horses, and it was a game that he knew he was going to lose from the start.

And now you tell me that your inferior horse beat the opponent's superior horse?

Wait, this isn't just a low-grade horse! It's a swift horse! No, this is Zhou Cang!

"There are always good horses, but there are not always good horses... Mr. Jin's vision is truly amazing. No wonder people say that when it comes to stock trading, they should follow him and buy whatever he buys."

Gu Zhengyu couldn't help but sigh. Jin Wan's level was consistently ranked last among many national players with titles back then, but he has found a second spring in his old age and has many students all over the world.

Several talented chess players have been discovered continuously, including the current chess master Jiang Mobai.

Now Yi Zheng has arrived. Could it be that another reserve player, Shi Yu, also has some unexpected surprises?
Gu Zhengyu felt that he had to observe the other reserve player carefully when he returned, and maybe give him a chance to play, maybe he would be another surprise.

In the future, when he becomes awesome, I can brag about it too. When he was younger, I was his captain, and he always followed me around. 钭鸿朗: "It seems like replacing Lao Xi was the right move."

If Zhang Laoxi was there and heard this, he would probably shout: Peanuts for me!

Gao Jingfeng excitedly grabbed Yi Zheng's neck and said, "That's pretty good! We're off to a great start today! The captain is treating us to dinner tonight, let's have kaiseki cuisine!"

"No! You're eating and taking, right? You asked for food and didn't pay for it yourself, so you asked me to pay!"

Gu Zhengyu, who was thinking, kicked Gao Jingfeng directly after hearing this and said, "You really know how to do this, kid."

Gao Jingfeng laughed along. They were all old teammates who had played against each other for several years. It was mostly a joke and no one cared who treated them to a meal.

Their income is usually not too low. They have a fixed team salary every month. They can get 20,000 yuan for winning a game in Weiqi B. There are also prize money from other competitions. Everyone's income is quite good.

"Forget about kaiseki cuisine. I don't think I can eat anything raw. How about something like conveyor belt sushi?" Yi Zheng felt that he really couldn't eat sashimi or something like that. Sushi was okay, and Japanese ramen was not bad either.

"It's all fine, but before the match, I never imagined Yi Zheng would actually defeat Uno Chisuke. A first-dan defeating a ninth-dan! Is there any precedent for this?"

"Maybe? But I can't remember it, it's a bit unbelievable."

Yan Honglang still felt that it was a little unreal. Although the Go rank is not so high that one is definitely stronger than the lower ranks, otherwise everyone would not have to compete and could just compare their ranks directly.

But it still feels a bit unbelievable that a first-dan player could defeat a ninth-dan player.

Leaping eight levels! ?
"This, this is called a divine ban!"

When Master Ke heard this, he added a sidebar: "Only the ancient emperors can stay in the divine forbidden realm permanently. They can experience this realm in the initial stage. I, Tu Yi... No, it feels a bit unlucky to say this."

Listening to Mr. Ke's immature words, Yi Zheng shook his head. He was quite clear-headed: "First of all, the ninth dan on the opposite side is actually just average in strength, not a true ninth dan at all, and he is also old.

The most important thing is that he underestimated me. At the beginning, he thought he could easily defeat me, but ended up destroying himself. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to defeat him so easily."

Yi Zheng felt that the most important thing was self-awareness. He only won a Shui Jiu, but his goal was far more than that.

Gu Zhengyu waved his hand when he heard this: "If you win, you win. There's no need to say so much. If you lose, there's always an excuse. No matter what, you win this round.

I guess you'll soon be noticed by many chess fans, and there might even be a support group and fan club."

It's easy to find excuses for losing: not preparing for the opponent, bad environment at the competition venue, not taking online chess seriously, but losing is losing, and that's an established fact.

Gu Zhengyu couldn't help but sigh, "Just with this one round, your rating will skyrocket!
If you lose a game against us in the World B Championship, you might not lose many points, but if you win a game, your score will go up a lot, which is really a big win. You might even be on the list of top scorers."
